Valued at ~$230.9 million in 2023, the electromagnetic surgical navigation systems market is projected to reach ~$271.4 million by 2028, increasing at a CAGR of 3.3% over the 2023-2028 forecast period. This Market Snapshot is part of LSI’s Market Intelligence platform, your one-stop-shop for global medtech market sizing and analysis, procedure volume data, startup company- and deal-tracking, curated insights, and more.
Electromagnetic surgical navigation systems are advanced computerized imaging and instrument tracking tools that use magnetic fields and sensors attached to surgical instruments. These systems provide real-time position and orientation data for handheld instruments, primarily used in minimally invasive and endoscopic procedures. By integrating pre-procedural imaging, such as CT scans, the system displays a real-time 3D rendition of the surgical instrument on the image, offering precise guidance to surgeons throughout the procedure. This technology enhances accuracy and efficiency, especially in complex surgeries.
Products included within the scope of this analysis include:
Surgical navigation systems employing electromagnetic surgical instrument-tracking technology for real-time guidance of surgical procedures

Electromagnetic Surgical Navigation Systems Market Insights

The electromagnetic surgical navigation systems market, valued at $230.9 million in 2023, is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.3% from 2023 to 2028—a significant slowdown compared to previous forecasts. This decline is largely due to disruptions in the market, including the 2023 FDA Class 2 recall of the SPIN thoracic navigation system, which was developed by Veran Medical Systems (now part of Olympus). As a result, Olympus terminated the manufacture and sale of the SPIN system, contributing to a decrease in market activity. Additionally, Medtronic, the leading supplier in this market, reported a significant decline in sales for its surgical navigation systems business, further impacting overall market performance.
Despite these setbacks, prices for electromagnetic surgical navigation systems are expected to increase, though at a slower rate compared to the broader medical device market. Technological advancements and feature enhancements will continue to drive price growth. However, the growing adoption of robotic systems that do not rely on electromagnetic navigation, such as Intuitive’s Ion system, could pose a long-term challenge to the market’s growth trajectory.
